Introduction

ESRI® announces the ArcGIS Desktop 9.1 Maplex for ArcGIS Formatting Tag
Label Placement Patch. This Patch solves a problem with the incorrect placement
of labels when the label text contains formatting tags. It deals specifically
with the issues listed below under Issues Addressed with this
Patch.

We recommend that all ArcGIS Desktop 9.1 customers with the Maplex for ArcGIS
Extension, who place labels with text formatting tags, download and install
this Patch at their earliest convenience to ensure the highest quality experience
when working with ArcGIS Desktop 9.1.

Issues Addressed with this Patch

Labels containing text with formatting tags are incorrectly placed during
the labeling process. When text contains formatting tags, the positions
of the text characters are not properly handled resulting in text at incorrect
locations. In this case, text is often placed in the lower left hand extent
of the label placement run.

This patch resolves the improper handling of formatting tags during label
placement that was causing the text to be incorrectly placed.

Files Installed in this Patch

Under the C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Bin folder:
